Polarization in #KidneyWk Educational Community by Avrum Gillespie @AvrumGillespie
The agenda #KidneyWk 
Why we tweet. #KidneyWk
Going deep into the "Social" of social media. The Left and Middle box. #KidneyWk
What is a social network. Nice demonstration of an online and offline (dialysis unit, see the pinned tweet on @AvrumGillespie twitter feed for more on that) social network. #KidneyWk
Popular people get more popular. This is called preferential attachment. His example is some clown named @Kidney_Boy #KidneyWk
Homophily, people seek attachments with people of similar beliefs and interests. #KidneyWk

How reduce polarization. #KidneyWk
Social Media team to defend the network. He never defines attack or defense. I have no idea what this slide means. #KidneyWk
His key data is 2019 vs 2020 #KidneyWk and he never mentioned the pandemic. Wild.
